I was issued this book by NetGalley for my unbiased review.

I have to question myself--Why don't I read more of Rick Mofina's books?

This was another great read from Mr. Mofina. His books are always exciting and keep twisting and turning. You think you have it figured out and all of a sudden things change and your back to re-evaluating. I think he could make a walk in the park exciting--oops, that is what he did!

I do have to read more of his books! Great story teller.

I’m a faithful Rick Mofina reader and his books are ALWAYS fantastic, however, this book just couldn’t seem to end. The concept and story are great but there are just pages and pages where not much is happening. Thanks for the advanced read.

Thank you to NetGalley and Harlequin Trade publishing for the opportunity to read this ARC!

When Corina’s son goes missing in Central Park walking home after school with his sister, detectives are on a race against the clock to get him back. Corina is a news anchor who has been targeted before so the list of suspects is potentially a long one.

This book would make a great action movie. I would have enjoyed to see more from Gabriel’s perspective but I really did enjoy the ending!

This is a fast-paced, page-turning missing child mystery. It's an exciting book readers will finish in one night. There are a lot of red herrings and traumatic back stories on minor characters that take the focus off the main plot, and the family members dumb decisions make them pretty annoying, but overall it's an entertaining read. Thank you Mira for the digital review copy.

This book by Rick Mofina intrigued me because the synopsis was pretty typical of the books that appeal to me when I want something fast-moving. Fast moving, this was not. However, it was enjoyable overall BUT it was painfully slow.

I usually like all of Rick Mofina's books as he can craft a fast-paced story with spooky and suspenseful elements. However, Someone Saw Something felt slow for me. The "several years earlier" portion was good and had me thinking I might know what was happening. Overall, it was a good story with several red herrings and many suspicious characters to choose from, but the pacing felt cumbersome, and the book too long for how it all culminated and what was revealed.

Thank you to NetGalley and Harlequin Trade Publishing, MIRA

Thank you to NetGalley for this copy of Someone Saw Something by Rick Mofina. He is one of my favorite authors so I couldn’t wait to get a copy!
When your child goes missing, it’s every parent’s worst moment. It was for news anchor Corina Corado when her six-year-old son, Gabriel, disappears. Does it have something to do with the hate mail she has received, or secrets kept by her husband and stepdaughter? Or someone at her work? Lots of secrets kept by everyone involved!
I totally enjoyed this book. It kept me on a roller coaster from beginning to end, and I couldn’t wait to see who had kidnapped Gabriel and how they were involved with the family. There were many subplots throughout the book with kept it totally interesting. Highly recommended! Another great one by Rick Mofina!

This book was a struggle for me. The writing seemed disjointed, there were a lot of characters and extraneous descriptions, and it was hard to connect with anyone. I usually love Mofina’s books, but this one wasn’t for me. I did not finish it.

Synopsis (From Netgalley, the provider of the book to review)
*******************************************************

A missing child is every parent’s worst nightmare.

For journalist Corina Corado, it’s a terrifying reality.

When six-year-old Gabriel vanishes from Central Park, his mother, news anchor Corina Corado, is desperate for answers. Who would take her son—and why?

Detectives suspect there’s a connection to the barrage of hate mail Corina’s received over the years. In her line of work, it’s not unusual for agitated conspiracy theorists to send messages that threaten violence…or worse. But as the investigation deepens, the secrets that Corina, her husband, Robert, and her stepdaughter, Charlotte, have kept start to unravel.

As the truth behind Gabriel’s disappearance emerges, Corina must race the clock to track down her missing child…before paying the ultimate price.

It took a darn long time to get to Central Park --- too long. Way too long. I get that it was background information about Corina and her personality and job but “get to the point please”! After that, the story was interesting and enjoyable but overall, to me, an #MOTR read.

Six year old Gabriel goes missing in Central Park while walking home with his sister. She feels guilty because she was on her phone and not paying attention. His mother Corina is an investigative reporter and has had lots of hate mail. It’s a rush to find Gabriel. A book that’s hard to put down. Who kidnapped Gabriel and will they find him alive.

Corina reports. Now she is the one being talked about. Her son is missing. Did anyone see anything? This talented author has written a cannot put down story of mystery and intrigue. A page turner. This is a difficult story about the missing child. Fiction that reads like nonfiction. This story is powerful. Family and friends. Helping others. Having hope. Spend an afternoon trying to determine the ending. I look forward to more great books by this author. Thanks Netgalley

"Someone Saw Something" is a tense, dark mystery with well-drawn characters and a fast pace. You may not be able to set this book down. I would recommend for fans of true crime and grittier suspense novels. Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC.
